CASE STUDY: Stego ® Wrap Vapor Barrier

Using Stego Wrap Keeps Chavez Concrete On The Fast Track During Cost Plus World Market ® and Bed Bath and Beyond ® Construction

For three generations, Chavez Concrete has been one of the most trusted names in New Mexico. As one of the state’s oldest and largest concrete companies, Chavez knows what it takes to get the job done correctly: dedication, crafts manship, hands-on leadership, and the ability to select the right tools for the job. When Chavez poured concrete at a Cost Plus World Market ® and Bed Bath and Beyond ® in Santa Fe, they followed the same steady course and selected Stego Wrap Vapor Barrier for the project’s be low-slab moisture protection. For the Santa Fe job, Chavez was dealing with a large sur face area, given the size and scope of the new stores- over 600 yards of concrete in the same shopping center. With the planned April openings fast approaching, Chavez knew that the correct vapor barrier was essential to getting the job done quickly—and correctly—which is why they relied on Stego Wrap Vapor Barrier and Stego ® Tape to provide the vapor barrier they needed.

What Stego Brought to Chavez Concrete The Project: A Quick Turnaround Even when pressured by quickly approaching deadlines, it’s important to pay attention to details that are often over looked, like vapor protection, since below-slab conditions can spur unwanted vapor diffusion from the subgrade and into the slab. Ideally, the vapor barrier chosen will be du rable and will meet the ASTM E1745 Class A performance criteria and be easily installed per the procedures outlined in ASTM E1643.

The Solution: Stego Wrap and Stego Tape Chavez Concrete selected two Stego products that suited their needs for quality and quick turn around.
